The beautifully finished ABM top triple clamp is the highlight of the simplified cockpit. While the handlebar may look wide with the mirrors hanging off the end, it's a comfortable width that gives plenty of leverage yet doesn't leave you spread like a sail in the breeze. The master-cylinder reservoir is bolted to a small bracket that is zip-tied to the handlebar. We raised the key switch from its standard position to move the fairing bracket up, losing the steering lock as a result. We used Targa's bar-end-mounted mirrors; another option is Spiegler's mirror clamps that mount inboard on the handlebar and accept a standard mirror.
